The Department of Computer Science at Colgate University invites applications for two or more possible positions in computer science at the rank of Visiting Assistant Professor beginning fall semester 2019. Appointments will be made for one year with the possibility of renewal. We encourage candidates in any area of specialization to apply. Completion of a Ph.D. is expected prior to or shortly after the date of hire.

In each semester, visiting professors can expect to teach two course sections plus associated laboratory sections. To support the candidate's scholarship, Colgate offers funding opportunities for travel to professional meetings, for professional development, for research support, and for students to participate in the candidate's research projects.

Applicants should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, teaching statement, research statement, and three letters of recommendation. The cover letter should indicate courses for which the candidate has teaching interest (see https://www.cs.colgate.edu for a list; additional elective topics may also be proposed). Colgate strives to be a community supportive of diverse perspectives and identities. All applications should speak directly to the candidate’s ability to work effectively with students and colleagues across a wide range of identities and backgrounds.
